Customer Review
business & technology
"RFID Field Guide" is an excellent book for an organization thinking about or starting a Radio Frequency Identification initiative. Unlike most books aimed at both business and technical readers, this one really is good for both. The authors don't assume a background of either, yet don't bore you with basics. The book provides a common language for business analysts and techies on a RFID project.The authors clearly explain the components and relevant history of RFID. Real life examples and lessons learned are highlighted throughout. The Wal-Mart and DoD mandates are frequently referred to for suppliers. Diverse examples and case studies are also included. Security, privacy and trends are discussed. The book does not attempt to evaluate the constantly changing vendors and instead stores a comprehensive and up to date version online.The only purely technical part of the book is an appendix, which describes the EPCglobal standard.

A field guide needed for all RFID new implementers
This text distinguishes itself from others by its sustained attention to the potential of RFID in its market and current landscape. This book provides a reasoned hand-on and scholarly presentation of the field of RFID.While it would be easy to criticize any introductory and field guide text for what it has left out or given slim summary, this book provides a reasonably even and well-balanced coverage of the "essentials" while retaining a relatively user-friendly size, along with specific case studies at the end. The chapters cohere well, but can stand alone: an important point for a RFID implementer who needs to pick and choose in order to fit the book into his or her RFID project of interests.Congratulations to the authors for the job well done!

Technology explained for effective and realistic application
Having already begun to be a cutting edge technology that has proved itself effective in streamlining a broad and diverse array of supply-side resources in the private sector -- RFID will, no doubt, continue to expand and integrate itself into other sectors: How and when this occurs is a question of understanding the merits and true potential of this incredible technology.This is a must-read for anyone who not only wants to understand RFID for what it is and what it could be in terms of application, but also for anyone who wants to see how effective the confluence of information age technology can be utilized to advance and improve pre-existing systems, services, and production mechanisms.Bhuptani and Moradpour present RFID in a very accessible and easily-understood manner that appeals to a broad range of readers. From us laypersons who, quite frankly, might view RFID as a new opportunity for investment; to the many technophiles who are already tearing through...
